London is in the grip of an icy winter and Westfield's Men are out of work. Invited to perform at a manor house in Essex, they accept willingly even though the offer comes with two conditions: they must perform an entirely new play and agree to take a new apprentice, Davy Stratton, into the company. At first it seems as though Davy is a talented and eager addition to the theater troupe. However, he soon disrupts the group's camaraderie when he quarrels with the other apprentices and runs away on a reconnaissance trip to Essex. Nicholas Bracewell just manages to hold the group together during the rehearsals for their new play, The Witch of Colchester. But when the lead actor succumbs to a series of strange illnesses, identical to those which afflict his character in the play, some members of Westfield's Men fear there may be a witch among them. Then a prominent audience member dies during the opening night performance, and Nicholas Bracewell has to confront the deadliest foe of all. Rich in historical detail and wonderfully evoking the golden age of theater, The Devil's Apprentice is an exciting, suspenseful addition to this Edgar nominated series.

"Seek the gates and save the boy." Welcome to Bettendorf. At first glance, it seems like a typical Midwestern town, but take a closer look and you might be surprised. High schooler Jack Davies sees the darkness coming; he lives with it. Cold voices call out from the closet door; dead hands reach up from under his bed. Although he doesn't know it, Jack wields a great power. Now, a smooth-talking preacher has come to town promising freedom and redemption for all who follow his words. But like Jack, this preacher has a secret. Those who heed his call find themselves pawns in his plan to awaken an ancient evil, long ago imprisoned in the dank caves of Devils Glen Park. With the help of a widowed police officer, a babysitter, and a mysterious spirit called Ava, Jack must find the truth about his hidden power in time to battle the dark forces that have descended upon his town. If he fails, our world will be cast into darkness forever.Amazon Reviews:"I was terrified ....but couldn't stop reading...

D.J. Enright's essays - on Goethe, Mann, Nusil; on Hesse, Werfel, Svevo; on Heine, Brecht, Heym, Celan, Canetti, Grass; on Milosz, Cavafy, Stevie Smith and Japanese Women Diarists; on the Devil, Flaubert and Robertson Davies - are all humanist rather than theoretical. That is, they are all wonderfully readable, informative and engaged. They proceed from a deep and informed love of literature. Theory promises to fulfil a longing people have felt ever since English became an academic subject: to see their discipline established on an equally respectable footing with scientific investigation or philosophical enquiry. But literature tends to mean too much or too irresistibly to yield to the charms of meaninglessness. What other term than humanist can be applied to those who stand detached from any sovereign church?
